Extended data
Facial paralysis (facial neuritis, Bell's palsy, Hunter's syndrome), commonly known as "facial paralysis", "crooked mouth", "crooked mouth" and "hanging wind", is a common disease characterized by motor dysfunction of facial expression muscles.
Most patients often wash their faces and gargle in the morning and suddenly find that one cheek is abnormal and their mouth is skewed. If the muscles of the affected side are completely paralyzed, the forehead wrinkles disappear, the eye fissure increases, the nasolabial groove becomes flat, the corners of the mouth droop, and the corners of the mouth tilt to the healthy side when the teeth are exposed. The affected side should not frown, close eyes, inflate or pout. When you drum your cheeks and whistle, the air will leak because the affected lip cannot be closed. When eating, food residues often stay in the gap between the teeth and cheeks of the affected side, and saliva often drips from this side. Because the tear spot turns inward with the lower eyelid, tears can't flow out according to normal drainage.
It can be divided into peripheral type and central type, in which the incidence of peripheral facial paralysis is very high, and the most common is facial neuritis or Bell's facial paralysis. People often say that facial paralysis refers to facial neuritis in most cases. Because facial paralysis can cause a very strange face, it is often called "disfigurement disease".
